But the region should be encoded in the link, as there no way to figure
out what is the extent of the interesting area automatically.

Regarding org-follow-link-hook, I'm not familiar with org-mode code, but
it seems to me that is invoked for all URL types, but only after the
'viewing' has happened. I may well be wrong.

Thanks for the suggestion.
